Provided you still love the pics, keep them. You might even want to rotate what you have on your walls

Thanks INOD

Soup is souping as we speak.

bedding box left until tomorrow - too tired to tackle it properly - the post took longer than expected to sort out :cool:

too tired to take in more assignment. Will have to push on with it tomorrow :cool:

Yep, what INOD said - if you love them, keep them. And don't make declutter decisions when you're really tired!

Thanks guys pictures are indeed out of the way so don't create extra cleaning and i do like all of them

Today i *need* to tackle the bedding box - there is not too much in there thats saleable but just need to make sure we aren't keeping things for the sake of it :cool:

I am hungry and want something else to eat other than what i've defrosted It is defrosted though so i will just have to make do and eat it :cool:

So *make meal*

Animal shelters are generally grateful for old bedding.

Hey DDFW, so here you are, I've been looking for your diary and hadn't realised you moved on to greater things.

How I long to be posting on MFW instead of DFW - still a couple of years to go for me.

Congrats again on being debt-free and reaching the dizzy heights of MFW. :T

Thanks for stopping by everyone

INOD - thank you but the bedding box only has the 1 change of bedding in - i keep 2 sets of bedding 1 on the bed and 1 for washing day :cool: I did get some replacement bedding as 1 cheaper lot after 5 years of washing had gotten quite tatty and pulled - that is now used as a dust sheet

Bedding box has been with us since before we moved here and is used to store lots of things at the mo. - new towels for when th bathroom is done, ornaments until living room is done, printer paper, sleeping bags and i think thats it - but i will find out when i sort it

Al - the soup looked nice and thick and smelt lush i made it to use up the ingredients but not yet eaten any :cool:

P&f thank you although i still need to get a better job so my income is more than my outgoings :eek: I have been really frustrated this last few months as i've needed to pay for home insurance, gas and electric bill, car repairs, boiler service, car insurance and this has used up all my extra money so i am missing my overpayments I also have a 40th next month for close family. I think by april i will have paid all the extras as listed and hope to get back on a more even keel :cool:

You will be posting here before you know it p&f you are so motivated and it is great to see

Wow that is a lot of outgoings, though I suppose most of it can be considered regular outgoings. Here's to things sorting themselves out from April onwards.
